What is the difference between a Ruger LCP MAX and Sig Sauer P365-380?
The Ruger LCP MAX and Sig Sauer P365-380, though designed for different purposes, share some commonalities. Both chambered in 380 ACP, they cater to users seeking compact and lightweight options. The LCP MAX, with a 2.8-inch barrel, is a single-action-only (SAO) pistol designed for pocket carry. It offers a capacity of 10+1 and 12+1 rounds, showcasing versatility in ammunition options. The LCP MAX’s dimensions of 5.22 inches in length, 0.97 inches in width, and 4.12 inches in height, with a weight of 10.6 ounces, contribute to its pocket-sized design, making it an ideal choice for discreet carry. On the other hand, the P365-380, featuring a 3.1-inch barrel and a capacity of 10+1 and 12+1 rounds, is a striker-fired subcompact pistol from Sig Sauer. Despite being slightly larger at 5.8 inches in length, 1 inch in width, and 4.2 inches in height, with a weight of 15.7 ounces, it still falls within the compact category. While the LCP MAX leans towards pocket carry with its SAO trigger, the P365-380 provides a subcompact, striker-fired alternative, catering to users with preferences for either design. The slim widths of both pistols contribute to their concealability, with the LCP MAX offering an even more compact solution for pocket carry enthusiasts.
Never been to one and never will.
I do not like to pay to go into a building where there are hundreds of people with tables full of ammunition and firearms when I cannot carry my own.
I took out the RIA 1911 and GSG 1911-22 for the first time in about a year since I acquired the VP9SK. I thought the VP was huge, having been spoiled by my other subcompacts Shield and Max-9. When I caressed the 1911, whoa! It’s a big gun! I knew that but I got so used to my EDCs. That realization took me out of the 1911 market and similar sized handguns.
His argument about “don’t” is simply a manual of arms argument.
I started with a bull pup, so my problem is with the AR platform!
If you’re extensively trained and used to a standard long gun yeah the ergonomics of a bull pup could throw you off in a SD situation.
For instance, things like the difference between the magazine release on my two Tavors! On the 5.56 it’s a little trigger in front of the magazine, on the 7.62 it’s a button in front of the trigger guard! That throws me off almost EVERY time I try to drop the magazine on the 7.62!
